T BEING evident, from a steady decline of 
a proper celebration of the National holidays 
of the United States of America, that popu- 
lar concern in the events and men of the war 
of the Revolution is gradually declining, and 
that such lack of interest is attributable, not 
so much to the lapse of time and the rapidly 
increasing flood of immigration from foreign 
countries, as to the neglect, on the part of descendants of 
Revolutionary heroes, to perform their duty in keeping 
before the public mind the memory of the services of their 
ancestors and of the times in which they lived ; therefore, 
the Society of the Sons of the Revolution has been insti- 
tuted to perpetuate the memory of the men who, in the 
military, naval and civil service of the Colonies and of the 
Continental Congress, by their acts or counsel, achieved the 
Independence of the country, and to further the proper cele- 
bration of the anniversaries of the birthday of Washington, 
and of prominent events connected with the war of the 
Revolution ; to collect and secure for preservation the rolls, 



8 

records and other documents relating to that period ; to 
inspire the members of the Society with the patriotic spirit 
of their forefathers ; and to promote the feeling of friend- 
ship among them. 

The General Society shall be divided into State Societies, 
which shall meet annually on the day appointed therefor in 
their respective by-laws, and oftener if found expedient; 
and at such annual meeting the reasons for the institution 
of the Society shall be considered, and the best measures 
for carrying them into effect adopted. 

The State Societies, at each annual meeting, shall choose, 
by a majority of the votes present, a President, a Vice-presi- 
dent, a Secretary, a Registrar, a Treasurer, a Chaplain, and 
such other officers as may by them respectively be deemed 
necessary, together with a Board of Managers consisting of 
these officers and of nine other members, all of whom shall 
retain their respective positions until their successors are 
duly chosen. 

Each State Society shall cause to be transmitted annually, 
or oftener, to the other State Societies, a circular letter call- 
ing attention to whatever may be thought worthy of obser- 
vation respecting the welfare of the Society or of the general 
union of the States, and giving information of the officers 
chosen for the year ; and copies of these letters shall also be 
transmitted to the General Secretary, to be preserved among 
the records of the General Society. 

The State Societies shall regulate all matters respecting 
their own affairs, consistent with the general good of the 
Society; judge of the qualification of their members or of 
those proposed for membership, subject, however, to the 
provisions of this Constitution ; and expel any member who, 
by conduct unbecoming a gentleman or a man of honor, or 



by an opposition to the interests of the community in general 
or of the Society in particular, may render himself unworthy 
to continue in membership. 

In order to form funds that maybe respectable, each mem- 
ber shall contribute, upon his admission to the Society and 
annually thereafter, such sums as the by-laws of the respec- 
tive State Societies may require ; but any of such State 
Societies may provide for the endowment of memberships 
by the payment of proper sums in capitalization, which 
sums shall be properly invested as a permanent fund, the 
income only of which shall be expended. 

The regular meeting of the General Society shall be held 
every three years, and special meetings may be held upon 
the order of the General President or upon the request of 
two of the State Societies, and such meetings shall consist 
of the General Officers and a representation not exceeding 
five deputies from each State Society, and the necessary ex- 
penses of such meeting shall be borne by the State Societies. 

At the regular meeting, a General President, Vice-Presi- 
dent, Secretary, Assistant Secretary, Treasurer, Assistant 
Treasurer and Chaplain shall be chosen by a majority of 
the votes present, to serve until the next regular general 
meeting, or until their successors are duly chosen. 

At each general meeting the circular letters which have 
been transmitted by the several State Societies shall be con- 
sidered, and all measures taken which shall conduce to the 
general welfare of the Society. 

The General Society shall have power at any meeting to 
admit State Societies thereto, and to entertain and determine 
all questions affecting the qualifications for membership in or 
the welfare of any State Society as may, by proper memorial, 
be presented by such State Society for consideration. 



lO 



Any male person above the age of twenty-one years, of 
good character, and a descendant of one who, as a military, 
naval or marine officer, soldier, sailor or marine, in actual 
service, under the authority of any of the thirteen Colonies 
or States or of the Continental Congress, and remaining 
always loyal to such authority, or a descendant of one who 
signed the Declaration of Independence, or of one who, as 
a member of the Continental Congress or of the Congress 
of any of the Colonies or States, or as an official appointed 
by or under the authority of any such legislative bodies, 
actually assisted in the establishment of American Inde- 
pendence by services rendered during the war of the Revo- 
lution, becoming thereby liable to conviction of treason 
against the government of Great Britain, but remaining 
always loyal to the authority of the Colonies or States, shall 
be eligible to membership in the Society. 

The Secretary of each State Society shall transmit to the 
General Secretary a list of the members thereof, together 
with the names and official designations of those from whom 
such members derive claim to membership, and thereafter 
upon the admission of members in each State Society, the 
Secretary thereof shall transmit to the General Secretary 
information respecting such members similar to that herein 
required. 

The Society shall have an insignia, which shall be a badge 
suspended from a ribbon by a ring of gold ; the badge to be 
elliptical in form, with escaloped edges, one and one-quarter 
inches in length, and one and one-eighth inches in width ; 
the whole surmounted by a gold eagle, with wings displayed, 
inverted ; on the obverse side a medallion of gold in the 
centre, elliptical in form, bearing on its face the figure of a 
soldier in Continental uniform, with musket slung; beneath, 



II 



the figures 1775; the medallion surrounded by thirteen 
raised gold stars of five points each upon a border of dark 
blue enamel. On the reverse side, in the centre, a medallion 
corresponding in form to that on the obverse, and also in 
gold, bearing on its face the Houdon portrait of Washington 
in bas-relief, encircled by the legend, " Sons of the Revo- 
lution;" beneath, the figures 1883; and upon the reverse 
of the eagle the number of the badge to be engraved ; the 
medallion to be surrounded by a plain gold border, conform- 
ing in dimensions to the obverse ; the ribbon shall be dark 
blue, ribbed and watered, edged with buff, one and one- 
quarter inches wide, and one and one-half inches in dis- 
played length. 

The insignia of the Society shall be worn by the members 
on all occasions when they assemble as such for any stated 
purpose or celebration, and may be worn on any occasion of 
ceremony ; it shall be carried conspicuously on the left 
breast, but members who are or have been officers of the 
Society may wear the insignia suspended from the ribbon 
around the neck. 

The custodian of the insignia shall be the General Secre- 
tary, who shall issue them to members of the Society under 
such proper rules as may be formulated by the General 
Society, and he shall keep a register of such issues wherein 
each insignia issued may be identified by the number thereof. 

The seal of the Society shall be one and seven-eighths 
inches in diameter, and shall consist of the figure of a 
Minute-man in Continental uniform, standing on a ladder 
leading to a belfry ; in his left hand he holds a musket and 
an olive branch, whilst his right grasps a bell-rope ; above, 
the cracked Liberty Bell ; issuing therefrom a ribbon bear- 
ing the motto of the Society, Exegi monumentum are ■perennius ; 



12 



across the top of the ladder, on a ribbon, the figures 1776; 
and on the left of the Minute-man, and also on a ribbon, 
the figures 1883, the year of the formation of the Society; 
the whole encircled by a band three-eighths of one inch wide; 
thereon at the top thirteen stars of five points each ; at the 
bottom the name of the General Society, or of the State 
Society to which the seal belongs.

a President, a Vice-President, a Secretary, a Registrar, a

may be provided by their respective Constitutions and
